These are some of the additional Geometry books and resources that did not make it in my previous Geometry post. Some books at the advanced section here are meant for independent learners. I am sure there are more math literature available beyond what I have listed here. Geometry was initially done playfully in our home, by deriving proofs and formulae, playing with puzzles such as Tangrams, building and constructing structu! res; using Zome, reading and discussing a lot of history behind geometry, math and art, etc. Later my kids moved onto some more formal Geometry learning through programs like AOPS, Aleks etc. We bought our kids a good Drafting/Geometry kit when they expressed interest in doing hands on proof based geometry learning. We also invested on the Zome tools advanced math kit. Zome has gotten a lot of use in our home by both our kids even though we bought the kit way before their recommended ages. I hope some of these resources are useful to you.
